I live in Seneca which was not affected too much by the rain. That said, did the state of emergency apply state wide or to select areas? I do not recall the exact date it was declared, but local hotels had raised their prices due to the Clemson home games. My argument is if we were under the state of emergency then how were they able to raise their prices and do they possibly owe refunds?
